Re: name of the committers should be updated

[Samul Kevin <lo...@gmail.com>]

sorry that i misunderstood committers as people who currently maintain and

i believe that new committers must be added after the code committed to SVN.
I will learn the stuff you gave, i find that the [3] is quite useful. thks.
